Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade C, and why

github-copilot-instructions uv.instructions.md scanned grade C with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Reaches for credential fileshighPrivilege escalation

SSH keys, cloud credentials, git-credentials, .npmrc, /etc/shadow: reading these is how a config file becomes a credential leak.

uv Project and Package Management Instructions

Overview

You MUST use uv as the primary Python package manager and project management tool. uv is an extremely fast Python package installer and resolver written in Rust that serves as a drop-in replacement for pip, pip-tools, and virtualenv.

Core Principles

  • You WILL ALWAYS use uv for Python dependency management instead of pip, poetry, or conda
  • You MUST create and maintain pyproject.toml files for all Python projects
  • You WILL use uv's built-in virtual environment management
  • You MUST leverage uv's lockfile functionality for reproducible builds
  • You WILL use uv for Python version management when needed

Project Initialization

New Python Project

# Create a new Python project with uv
uv init my-project
cd my-project

# Or initialize in existing directory
uv init

New Python Package

# Create a new Python package (installable library)
uv init --package my-package
cd my-package

# Create package in existing directory
uv init --package

# Create package with specific Python version
uv init --package my-package --python 3.11

New Python Library

# Create a new Python library (for distribution)
uv init --lib my-library
cd my-library

# Create library in existing directory
uv init --lib

# Create library with specific build backend
uv init --lib my-library --build-backend hatchling

Project Template Options

# Create application project (default)
uv init my-app

# Create package project (installable via pip)
uv init --package my-package

# Create library project (for PyPI distribution)
uv init --lib my-library

# Create with custom package name
uv init --name custom-name my-project

# Create without Git initialization
uv init --no-git my-project

# Create with specific Python requirement
uv init --python ">=3.9" my-project

Project Type Selection Guide

Application Project (uv init)

  • Use for standalone applications, scripts, or web services
  • Creates basic project structure with src/ layout
  • Includes basic pyproject.toml configuration
  • Best for projects that won't be distributed as packages

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
